Abstract
For the understanding of the nature of traffic breakdown, probably the most important fundamental empirical feature of traffic breakdown is the possibility of both spontaneous and induced traffic breakdowns at the same bottleneck. Indeed, this feature leads to the conclusions about the nucleation nature of traffic breakdown and the existence of the infinite number of highway capacities of free flow at the bottleneck [1].
